Fox News is not only the most watched news network in the US, it's also the worst by any measure:
A 2010 Stanford University survey found "more exposure to Fox News was associated with more rejection of many mainstream scientists' claims about global warming, [and] with less trust in scientists".[75]
In 2011, a study by Fairleigh Dickinson University found that New Jersey Fox News viewers were less well informed than people who did not watch any news at all.
67% of Fox viewers believed that the "U.S. has found clear evidence in Iraq that Saddam Hussein was working closely with the al Qaeda terrorist organization" (compared with 56% for CBS, 49% for NBC, 48% for CNN, 45% for ABC, 16% for NPR/PBS).
Photocopied memos instructed the network's on-air anchors and reporters to use positive language when discussing pro-life viewpoints, the Iraq War, and tax cuts, as well as requesting that the Abu Ghraib prisoner abuse scandal be put in context with the other violence in the area.[84] Such memos were reproduced for the film Outfoxed, which included Moody quotes such as, "The soldiers [seen on Fox in Iraq] in the foreground should be identified as 'sharpshooters,' not 'snipers,' which carries a negative connotation."
Fox News' billionaire co-founder is Australian media mogul Rupert Murdoch who also has media empires there biased to Australia's wealthy/conservative political party and fossil fuel industry and an even larger one in the UK, which did the same kind of Fox News slimy tactics (see also: photoshopped Jewish reporters' noses, President Obama "has a deep-seated hatred for white people or the white culture" and "is racist," President Obama tan suit scandal, mustard scandal, First Lady Michelle Obama shoulder scandal, "terrorist fist jab") with Brexit: https://www.theguardian.com/media/20...xit-newspapers
Helpful graph of why scientists are comfortable about discussing the increasing extreme heat events and climate change together
I'd rather be for global cooling because I hate hot weather. Always tired.
Still, you'd miss it once it gets so unbearable hot that normally hot climates become uninhabitable. And believe it or not, it's gonna give winter weather a boost. While winter and rainy seasons become shorter, storms and blizzards are gonna be more extreme.
